sure so i can go and yell at Sean for taking too fucking long to prep my pizza. This shit is like end stage capitalism, going full circle.

>>13162016
>gurpreet began custom-making your order
CANCELLED.

>>13162052
To be fair, i'd rather it sit waiting BEFORE baking, instead of after baking.

If it's a 15 min wait before it goes in the oven and then it leaves the store right after it's out, that's fine by me.

I hate when my pizza sits there at "quality check" stage, just under a lamp.

No because 10/10 times it's some poo named Arvinder

>>13162052
speak of the devil, 25 minutes later

I love watching the Pizza tracker

>>13162099
at least the bake went by quick

>>13162117
Your pizza will be underdone and doughy.

>>13162122
it's not pizza :^)

I immediately cancel my order if the name is a black name or woman

>>13162134
>or woman
i prefer if it's female, she might spit in it or potentially even pussy juice.

Why would I turn down a female touching my food?

>>13162016
>Do you enjoy knowing the name of the person who spit in your food?

>>13162117
and here it comes

>>13162174
Ask Eugene if he's a lizard man in disguise.

>>13162201
He was like a mid 50's white guy with Parkinsons or some shit.

Super shaky hands.

>>13162162
Yes so I can go full Karen and report the specific employee to corporate.

i have a few friends who work at the one i order from, so i can give them shit later if they made my pizza even if it was good. 'hey robin, you fucked up my pizza"

>>13162052
>end stage capitalism
Don't you mean corporatism? Dirty commie fuckhead.

>>13162233
It's called alcoholism.

>>13162254
i didn't want to assume something with negative connotations.

Parkinson's doesn't presume some substance abuse.

Though yes, there are other potentials that are slightly more likely like alcohol abuse

>>13162174
Well? Where is it?

>>13162276
half in my stomach

>>13162016
No. It means nothing to me.

>>13162052
Late stage capitalism is a fake word made up by commies over 100 years ago.

>>13162253
Dame shit. Of the middle man is cut from the equation and the customer has instant access to the information on the other side that involves knowing what the worker is doing at all times its near its end.

Dude... its not their real name... you know that right?

>>13162278
You know you could have made that slop yourself with absolutely no cooking skill, and you could have made a bucket load for what you paid stoned teenagers to reheat and drive to you?

it always pisses me off when achmed leaves the store with my pizza at 6:15 but doesn't show up until like 6:40 even though I only live 4 blocks away.

>>13162680
>over 100 years ago
>tiny brained capitalcuck can't comprehend the grand sweep of history, let alone historical materialism

>>13162016
It's fun thinking about names you can call them to tease them when they arrive. My favorites have been "Wageslave Dave" and "Are Ivan [arriving] late?" I always get too scared to really say them though. But I really want a chance with another Dave.

>Dequarius has put your pizza in the oven

>>13162052
>like end stage capitalism, going full circle.

>>13162238
Can you at least pretend like you're not a Reddit frog?

>>13162726
I also had boneless chicken

also, no shit I can cook food myself, that's true for pretty much anything you get delivered.

I got off work at 6, ordered food when i got home, I didn't feel like cooking on a sunday after work. Sue me.

>>13162233
Tell him to get a new Suzuki already. He's had that pile of shit for 2 decades now.

>>13162016
if its made buy someone who sounds ethnic i usually call and cancel my order and redo it a few minutes later

>>13162117
i actually work at dominos, its a belt fed oven, it takes five minutes every time

>>13164685
So what happens when someone selects "well done"?

It's not like they can throw the pizza in for another 5 minutes.

>>13164688
theres a little window looking thing on the side thats half way through they put it in again after its out. also serves as a way to get shit out if something goes wrong

>>13164732
So what you're saying is, it DOESN'T take 5 minutes every time.

Thanks for playing.

>>13164744
i can count on one hand the amount of times ive ever made a well done pizza you nit picking nigger

>>13164749
Is it really that uncommon? I order well done every time.

>>13164749
I order at least once a week or two, and it's always well done.

You live in the middle of nowhere, or you've not been working at dominos all that long.

I've been doing this for years, and before they even allowed you to select "well done" as an option, i'd write it into the special instructions box.

>>13164751
>>13164756
ya its basically never ordered, the regular 8.99 pan pizza deal is by far the most common thing ordered

>>13164760
Lol you're wrong.

The $5.99 medium 2 topping is by FAR the most common order.

Especially since it includes chicken, pasta, and sandwiches in the deal at the same price.

>>13164762
factually incorrect, ive seen the numbers

>>13162016
I don’t think it’s accurate. I picked up a pizza, checked my order and said, “Tell Jason he did he a really good job.”
“Who?”
“Jason. He made my pizza, right?”
“No one here is named Jason. Mark made your pizza.”
“Oh. Thanks Mark!”
Either that or I was subject to a teenager prank for their merriment.

>>13164763
Then you live in some backwater.

I don't know ANYONE who likes the pan pizza from dominos.

Anytime I'm with a friend and Dominos is being ordered, it's pretty much always medium hand tossed 2 topping deal with some people opting for a sub or a pasta.

It's by FAR the cheapest and most flexible option on the entire menu, that's been a staple of their menu for YEARS, and you're telling me a $9 pan pizza that i've seen ordered MAYBE twice in the past 5 years is the MOST popular option? Fuck off, i simply wont believe that without proof.

>>13164795
>my anecdotal evidence all that matters

lel ive seen corporate numbers kiddo

>>13164773
>referring to the pizza slaves by their names
You're a weirdo

>>13164804
>doubt
Some pizza flunky on the line isn't going to be seeing those numbers.

Not to mention, i doubt those numbers even EXIST for anyone but at corporate level. A normal franchisee wouldn't even see the national sales trends, there would be no reason for them to know it.

>pizza costs $6
>delivery fee + tip is $4-5
why is this allowed?

>>13164987
Because people are willing to pay extra for the convince of getting their food delivered
Don't like it? Go pick up your own food.

>>13162071
It takes time and impeccable craftsmanship to pick all the pubes out without leaving noticeable disturbances in the surface.

>>13164987
You’re asking for extra, optional services.

>>13164987
How entitled do you have to be to think your food should be LITERALLY driven and hand delivered directly to your door, for FREE.

Kill yourself dumbass.

>>13164987
>$6 pizza + $5 tip/delivery
THIS IS AN OUTRAGE
>$11 pizza + free delivery and no tip
What a value!

Whenever its a girl I hope she spits in it kneads the dough with here feet. Fucking rock hard every time.

>>13164992
the local pizza place I used to order from didn't have a delivery fee

>>13165046
how entitled do you have to be to think you should be paid directly by the customer when he's already paying your employer?

>>13165151
>how entitled do you have to be to think you should be paid directly by the customer when he's already paying your employer?
then you'd better start being okay with $15+ pizzas.

>>13162016
I had the same name come up for each step, including delivery, so I thought it was bullshit. Sure enough an exasperated looking lady was soon standing at the door apologizing for being short handed.

>>13165085
I just wish they would use girl piss to make the dough

>>13165413
lol

>>13165166
you still haven't explained what the delivery fee is supposed to be for if it's not the additional cost for having your pizza delivered.

>>13165586
Paying someone to interview drivers, evaluate and decide on a sensible delivery area, upkeep and maintain a database of addresses in the local area that are within your specific delivery range, etc, etc.

There are a lot of costs that go into running a delivery portion of a business.
Part of that money also goes to the delivery driver's hourly pay, but because he is a tipped employee, he likely isn't paid an hourly rate similar to the minimum wage, he is likely relying on tips to make up the remainder of his income.

Some nights he could score $20-30/hour, some night he might only get $10/hr

So those tips can really make or break the job, especially considering he has to use his OWN personal vehicle that he needs to maintain while working the job, which depending on the car can be a solid chunk of $$ by itself.


tldr; if you don't understand why drivers get tipped AND you pay a delivery fee, you're probably not cut out to run a business in the slightest.

>>13165656
>Some nights he could score $20-30/hour, some night he might only get $10/hr
oh no, poor him

>>13162016
Yes because then I know which Panjeet spit on my za. And then I eat it anyway

>>13165669
Like I said, feel free to encourage your local pizza place to increase costs and cut tipping as long as they pay their drivers a reasonable ~$15/hr instead of their $5/hr + tips they currently get.

And if you don't want a delivery fee, try and convince them to increase their base costs even higher to account for that overhead as well.

Now you're only paying $17 for a medium, $22 for a large, and $25 for an XL.

Enjoy the pizza

>>13165669
>>13165692
oh and the price is the obviously the same regardless of carryout/delivery. Since that's the only way to get rid of the delivery fee.

>>13165656
local pizza places don'tr have a delivery fee. how come they aren't all going out of business?

>>13162016
I like minimizing my interaction with them. Kind of tired of diarrhea so I make my own pizza lately.

>>13165692
>$15/hour
>$17 for a pizza that was $6 before (+$11 for delivery)
I hope you get run over by a self driving car after it takes your job

>>13166048
The difference comes when you order multiple pizzas.

Get 3 pizzas at that price and suddenly it's 6+6+6+11= $29 vs 17+17+17= $51

>>13165656
>which depending on the car can be a solid chunk of $$ by itself.
Long term more like most of it and in some cases the stupid fucks are actually paying to have a job, certainly if you're only making $10/hr

>Dequarius has put your pizza in his car

>>13162016
How are they supposed to avoid the Noid when the company publicly tracks them? Something doesn't add up.

>>13166073
how about I'll pay no more than $3 for delivery and anything more is robbery

>>13166537
Then you're probably looking at a ~$12 or $13 pizza.

>>13166037
because they're baking (ololol) that cost into the menu items

>>13165085
nah, thicc thigh kneading or smashing it with her ass

>>13166573
the one I used to get all the time was only slightly more expensive than dominos while being bigger and using way better ingredients

>>13166545
how does it go from $6 pizza + $3 delivery fee + $1 tip to $12 for everything?

>>13166923
>how does it go from $6 pizza + $3 delivery fee + $1 tip to $12 for everything?
Because the poster that originally started the comment chain said $6 pizza, delivery fee, AND $4-5 tip.

If you're absorbing ALL of those into the menu price, you're going up to at least $10-12.

It makes me mildly uncomfortable. These people are just doing their job. We're not friends, so why do I need to know their name?

They made it too personal. I'm sure boomers eat that shit up.

>>13166928
>$4-5 tip
in your dreams wagie

>>13167262
I'm not the one who said it

do you have some kind of insight here or are you just talking out your ass
